When struggling street artist Malia Turner accepts an anonymous commission to paint a Kwanzaa mural in her Harlem neighborhood, she never expects her mysterious patron to be Damien Edwards-the man whose heart she broke seven years ago. As they work side by side transforming a weathered wall into a celebration of Black community and culture, old feelings reignite. But when Malia discovers Damien's hidden agenda threatens the very people she's honoring, she must decide if love is worth the risk of trusting him again-or if some betrayals are too deep to forgive.
A second-chance romance about art, community, and the courage to build something beautiful from broken pieces.
